Training in a forest cave

He tries to help fold some of the cloths, but it becomes evident that he has never folded cloths before as they end up looking completely folded wrong. He looks out the window as the storm begins to rage outside as he is glad he brought all his stuff with him this time keeping it from being destroyed in the storm.

Glancing to Xerxan, Genevieve would say, "Here, Xerxan, let me help you with that." She would slowly show him how to properly fold a shirt plus a pair of pants. "Just take it a little at a time."

He nods following her directions as his folding gets a lot better even though he only just learned. He keeps folding the cloths not realizing the slave collar he still wears may of been noticed by Genevieve.

Genevieve noticed the slave collar and would ask, "Uhh, Xerxan? What is that around your neck?" She didn't know if this collar is temporary or permanent.

He says "it was a gift from the one that rescued me and taught me how to survive in the wilderness." He adds " It helps me understand other people and translate my words till I am feeling comfortable speaking it."

Genevieve listened and nodded in saying, "I see. Well, it is a very useful collar after all. I've heard that they are quite rare to come by." After fixing the clothes, she would ask, "Would you like to stay for lunch?"

He nods saying" do you mind if I stay till the storm ends mainly because I wouldn't be able to make it to my storm shelter camp?" He doesn't mention it to her that the collar was a slave collar even though Arasinya knew the truth about it already.

"Why not?" Genevieve answered with a smile. "Make yourself comfortable. Our home is your home. I'll get you some bread to strengthen you."

He nods and says " thank you I will do what I can to help with chores around here to pay you back for letting me stay." That night the Matron mother and the daughters begin probably the most brutal work out session to build up Morwen's strength, stamina, and speed along with saying "no pleasure for her till after she takes her trial." They made sure to stock up when signs of the storm were starting to show to ensure their food would last through out the storm.

"We thank you truly, Xerxan. And I rely on you to make sure my daughter is kept safe.

Arasinya would smile and say, "Mother, Xerxan is already a trustworthy person. He'll keep us safe."

Morwen went with her workout session with no complaints and wanted to make her mother and sisters proud.
